Race preview
Although thwarted in her hat-trick bid when finishing second on her chase bow at Catterick 140 days ago, Suitably Surprised warrants respect reverting to timber. However, FEACH AMACH offered plenty of encouragement on her fourth-placed stable bow at Newcastle in February and the combination of a wind procedure and first-time cheekpieces could be enough for Adam Nicol's mare to claim the spoils. Vanilla Dancer must also enter the reckoning dropping into class 5 company.
